How to Apply

First Year Students

Congratulations on making the choice to join the student employee community here at Gustavus! All First Year students will be placed in their first job based on the information they provide on their Gustie 1st Year Student Employment Application. Many work in high-need areas because they are fun, high-paced and high-paying, and others work in areas that they are interested in and have been already talking to professors or coaches in. If you are a first year student, watch your email for more information in the next month for your chance to apply!

If you decline your student employment in your first year, please stop into the Student Employment Office to connect about opportunities to work in the future. 

Please proceed to the Forms section below to fill out your application and payroll forms.

Current/Returning Students

If you already have a job on campus: Early March- an employment agreement will be sent out electronically via SignNow to your current supervisor (s). You are to connect with your supervisor(s) and discuss if you want to be employed again in that department for the next academic year. If yes, select “Keep” or “Add”, sign the agreement, submit, and it will route back to your supervisor to sign and then to Student Employment. If you do not want to work in the same department the next year, you will select “remove” on your agreement, sign, submit, and it will route back to the supervisor and then Financial Aid.

If you do not have a job on campus,or would like to change jobs: you can attend the job fair that will be held during the spring term, and apply for open positions via the Current Employment Openings button on the page above.

NOTE: We must have a student employment agreement and payroll documents on file before you begin working.
